Ok, I was looking at a lot of the recent blog posts and realized something. It’s been pretty serious stuff. Fear, goal setting, self-care, and downright being stuck.

But, the last several months of life have been pretty rough around my household. Don’t get me wrong, we’ve had plenty of fun. But, there’s been a lot of…

The last few days I have been thinking a lot about fear. It used to be something that I dealt with on a regular basis.
